Reduced to a Skeleton BY Disease, and Re
stored to Health ,cith DR.. Par
dee's Remedy.

Wilson, Niagara Co., N. Y.
GENTLRMEN:-1n April, 1883, I was
prostrated by a severe attack of infiam-
matory rheumatism md was confined to
my bed four months. I was attended by
the best medical skill, but rapidly grew
worse until I was reduced to q mere
skeleton.
The disease had gone to my lungs and
to the region Of my heart and I was finally
given up by the physicians, who said I
could live but a few hours at most, and
that all they could do wat to make me
as easy as possible by killing the pain
by frequent injections of morphine. 1
was finally advised by a friend to take
DR.. Pardee's Rheumatic Remedy. Upon
being asked as to giving it to me, the
physician said 81. have no faith in patent
medicines, but give it to him; it will not
hurt him." w.
WAS then SO near dead that my limbs
were cold below the knees, and q numb
sensation began to creep over my body,
and l suffered with great pain in my chest
and about my heart. After I had taken
the first few doses I experienced more
pain than before, for it seemed to drive
the pain from the vital parts towards the
extremities. I continued to take it &c
cording to directions. -Four days after,
the physician who gave me up called to
see me, and said I was much better. In
abou. four weeks I could sit up; I then
gained very fast and became as we'll as
ever. CHAS. O. BARNUM.

Disconnected those upon whom he practiced

over the title to certain real estate. His
counsel was a prominent attorney in St.

Delano renting the cost promptly at
stated intervals. One day the attorney,
finding himself hard pressed for money,
wrote to Mr.. Delano for o remittance, at
the close of his letter placing the scriptural
quotation: @Muzzle not the OK that tread

written:

Popular opinion has moved rapidly in
the last two months, and the Protection
lists had just as well understand that their
bold and oppressive idea is entirely out Of
date. A compromise involves mutual
concessions. And the trouble has
hitherto been that the high-tarif men
would concede nothing They demand
ed that all the reduction should be made
on internal taxes. Every motion even
to consider the war tariff was resisted
and denounced as a "free.trade con
spiracy.
There is no free trade" about it at
all. The people want the necessaries Of
life at fair prices instead Of paying so per
cent tribute 10 monopoly.
